SOCS-P

The reading tonight was short and sweet.  Thank you Laura!  I needed a night off so that I could get some scheduling work done for...well... work.  Anyway, it makes me think so much about what the beginning of school should look like.  I have questions and interesting sayings posted up around my room.  My intention is to help get the kids engaged.  I ask them which ones make them curious and try to engage in discussions about them, but after the first day, the conversations kind of died.  I am hoping that I can keep them coming with the help of this new methodology.  I am SO excited to run my kids through the "Do you think there is a relationship between the mass of a stick and its length?" experiment.  Then I am excited to say, "Do you think this is something we can measure?"  "Is that vague enough for you?" and the like.  I am sure this year will be a happier, more productive, and more engaging year.  Thank you to the team for giving me the push I needed.
